After their dreams of playing in the World Test Championship were shattered, India will now focus on dominating white-ball cricket and aim for a title win in the Champions Trophy 2025. With Pakistan agreeing to play at a neutral venue, India will also participate, playing all their games at the Dubai International Stadium. With many players from India’s 2014 champion team having retired, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are likely to play in what could be their last Champions Trophy. Before the tournament, let’s take a look at the Indian batters with the most runs in the Champions Trophy.
